1. What is the difference between Monthly and Annual Billing?

With Annual plans, you save approximately 15% off your total bill by paying a lump sum upfront. This lump sum is determined by this formula: [estimated total cost per month based on no. of headcount] x [12 months]. Upon payment, this amount will be reflected in your Talenox Billing Dashboard as ‘Talenox Credits’, and will deplete based on your usage per month.

With Monthly plans, you are billed monthly based on your active monthly headcount. As a standard practice (Monthly Pricing), we charge a base fee of HKD$168 for the first 5 headcount. An additional HKD$35 per headcount for full-timers and HKD$17.50 for part-timers apply.

We determine an employee is a part-time or full-time employee based on Rate of Pay. Resigned employees are not charged as a headcount.


2. What counts as an active employee in billing?

An employee with a hired date but no resignation date will be counted as an active headcount. When your employees resign, be sure to input their Resign Date so that they will not count towards your next bill.


3. What is a price cap?

Your bill will always be capped once you hit a minimum number of headcount. For a limited time - the cap is now only HKD$4,200/month per company on the Monthly Plan and HKD$3,500/month per company on the Annual Plan.

This means that after the cap, even if you have a company of 700 or 10,000, the fee will still be HKD$4,200/month on the Monthly Plan, or HKD$42,000/year (HK$3,500/month) on the Annual Plan.


4. What happens when my employee headcount increase/decrease if I’m in the annual plan?

We understand that changes in headcount may vary from month to month. If there are changes, your bill will correspond to the active headcount charged. Since the Annual Plan uses Talenox Credits, any addition or reduction of headcount will be calculated and the new amount will be deducted from your existing credits balance in the next month.

However, if you run out of credits, your Annual Plan will be automatically renewed, so that there are sufficient credits to account for any balance shortfall based on your headcount change.

Please note that your Annual Plan may cover your subscription charges less than or more than a year, depending on your headcount changes.

For your convenience, you may check the invoices and receipts at any point in time

from your Billing dashboard.
